EML
EML is a file format used to store email messages, typically with the .eml file extension. It is based on the MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) standard and contains the email's headers, body, and attachments in a plain text format. This format is commonly used for email archiving, backup, and data exchange between email clients.
Developers should learn about EML when working with email processing, archiving, or migration tools, as it is a standard format for storing individual email messages. It is particularly useful in applications involving email parsing, data extraction, or when integrating with email clients like Outlook, Thunderbird, or webmail systems. Understanding EML helps in handling email data programmatically, such as for automation scripts or compliance-related projects.
